I don’t know of many companies that are more aptly named than Hot Toys. The Sideshow owned brand have created some some truly spectacular figures in the past, and their latest offering is no exception. The Futura Knight, Batman Beyond figure is a work of art.

Their sales pitch on the piece gives us the whole picture.

Sideshow and Hot Toys are very excited to revisit the insanely popular Batman: Arkham series by presenting to “Bats” fans a Hot Toys’ own re-imagination of the 2039 style Batman Beyond skin from the Batman: Arkham Knight game – the Hot Toys exclusive 1/6th scale Batman (Futura Knight Version) collectible figure!

Inspired by the stylish Batman Beyond skin in the video game, the 1/6th scale Batman (Futura Knight Version) features a newly painted head sculpt with red eyes and two interchangeable black colored neutral and fierce expression lower faces, a masterly tailored multi-layer and multi-texture Batsuit with glossy red-colored electroplated Batman logo on the chest armor as well as glossy black and red colored armor plating throughout the body, a new Batman Beyond style Batarang, variety of Batman gadgets including grapnel gun, disruptor, REC gun, freeze grenade and many more!
